Well-Family Midwife Clinic Partnership Foundation, Inc. (WPFI)
WPFI was established in June 2002 to manage the midwife clinic franchise , in anticipation of the pull-out of the John Snow Inc. Research and Training institute(JSI/RTI), which conceptualized the project of midwives as private business enterpreneurs and turned it into a nationwide network of more than 200 clinics. With JSI/RTI ending in February 2005, WPFI has completely taken over the reigns of managing the project, which has turned the network into a franchise, with the WPFI as the franchisor, and midwife clinic managers as the franchisees. The franchise ensures that all members observe high standards of business performance and quality services at all times.
